Congrats!

hey, the world is completely nuts right now but our game dev studio @younghorses.com turned 14 years old today and that's pretty neat!

Octodad gingerly holding Bunger and Strabby from Bugsnax in his arms as they look to him.

The text reads, "Thank you for 14 great years!" but it's clearly a reused image because you can see the numbers 12, 11, and 10 crossed out. The Octodad: Dadliest Catch, Bugsnax, and Young Horses logos can also be seen.

Dear chess nerds: Check out our community manager walking through a rather tough Dailey Challenge for Below the Crown www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMhY56Kv/

Let's dive into today's Daily Challenge in Below the Crown. 👑♟️ This one looks brutal… but I think I can snag the high score no problem. #BelowTheCrown #Indiegame #Roguelike #Dungeoncrawler #Chess

How it started... how it's going.

Happy Campaign 4, @criticalrole.bsky.social

See you in a few hours in this thread

#criticalrolespoilers(?) Today I'm doing TRPG-related work, so catching up on last night's CR is on-task. A longer episode, they'd warned. I look at the VOD: SIX HOURS.
Me: I can skip the pre-roll and mid-roll, so according to @CritRoleStats that's now... ALMOST FIVE HOURS!?!

did you know that with the $30 you save from cancelling your game pass subscription you could not only subscribe to @aftermath.site , you could buy yourself one amazing Steam game to go with it, then just keep doing that forever?

This is nuts. Never thought I'd get past the permit-locked area around Orion, let alone all the way out here. The skybox is incredible, and the colonies are poppin'. Well done OASIS crew. cc @frontierdev.bsky.social.

I interviewed Toby Fox again. :) You can read the conversation in both and digital and print (!!!!!) editions of Game Informer. We talked about the “stupid” way to make games and his new journey with Deltarune. Read to see our convo and some awesome fan art.

If u want, plastic cement later for a durable base. Or use super glue again so you can rebase the minis years later for a new army.

Charlie Hall @charliehall.bsky.social · 9d

Never use plastic cement to base your miniatures… at first. It melts the feet to the base, making a permanent mess. Super glue instead to create a brittle bond you can easily break later — once you’ve finished painting the mini. Then u can concept, build, and paint the base to complement the mini.
